South Australian Health Minister Jack Snelling says the state's public hospitals are facing a "full-blown crisis" under funding cuts announced in the federal budget. Mr Snelling says a decision to axe the national partnerships agreement and renege on the national health reform agreement will cost SA about $600 million. He has been meeting health industry stakeholders to discuss the budget fallout. "The scale of these cuts would mean South Australia having to close 595 hospital beds, that is more beds than are in the Flinders Medical Centre. Cuts of that scale would throw our health system into a full-blown crisis," he said.Thu, 15 May 2014 14:34:00 +1000\xmlcontent\201405\4004850.xml639 ABC North and WestadelaidesoutheastsanorthandwesteyreriverlandEducation:All:AllEducation:Schools:AllGovernment and Politics:All:AllGovernment and Politics:Budget:AllGovernment and Politics:Federal - State Issues:AllGovernment and Politics:States and Territories:AllHealth:All:AllHealth:Health Policy:AllHealth:Healthcare Facilities:AllAustralia:SA:Adelaide 5000Australia:SA:AllAustralia:SA:Mount Gambier 5290Australia:SA:Port Augusta 5700Australia:SA:Port Lincoln 5606Australia:SA:Port Pirie 5540Australia:SA:Renmark 5341Nurse attends patientNurse attends patientABC TV: ABC TV-35.2333 138.7500Budget 2014: Income management scheme to extend to Cedunahttp://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-05-15/income-management-scheme-ceduna-indigenous/5454234?source=rss
